‘Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks’ Season 4 Ep. 5 Previews
Season 4 of the locally filmed National Geographic Channel (NatGeo) reality competition series Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks continues with Episode 5, titled “I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead”, and we have two official previews and two new clips for you to check out.
In the episode, the crews of the Doghouse, Foolish Pleasures and Little Shell all jockey to improve their positions before midseason burnout brings them down. The Foolish Pleasures looks far from foolish as they stay in lock-step with the top of the fleet, and while the Doghouse isn’t leading the fleet, but they are fun to watch, as a six-hour battle ends in a nail-biter.
The local captains featured on the show were on hand for a fun Q&A session at the local Season 4 Premiere Party, which you can watch here.
You can also watch our 2016 interview with Capt. Dave Marciano, filmed aboard the Hard Merchandise, here.
Filmed on the Outer Banks, North Carolina, the breakout TV show spin off of the original Wicked Tuna that follows the exciting work of hardcore tuna fishermen on the Outer Banks, production of the new season began in January, once again shot mostly aboard the boats of the local and visiting captains from Gloucester until the region’s bluefin quota is met.
Locally based charter boat Fishin’ Frenzy, led by Captain Greg Mayer, has won the competition each of the first three seasons of the show.
In the new season, Mayer is back once again with the Fishin’ Frenzy, along with Captain Britton Shackelford of the Doghouse, and Captain Charlie Griffin of the Reels of Fortune, but now they are joined former Fishin’ Frenzy first mate Nick Gowitzka, who is now the captain of the Little Shell.
Back down from Gloucester, Captain Tyler McLaughlin of the Pinwheel and Captain T.J. Ott of the Hot Tuna are joined by returning Virginia-based Captain Dale Lisi of the Foolish Pleasures.
Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks airs on Sundays at 10pm on NatGeo.
You can watch the new previews, as well as two clips of the action from the upcoming episode of Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks, below!
